Community Support Policy<br />

In <strong>2010</strong> was created a policy that establishes the principles and<br />

rules for granting sponsorships, donations and charity contributions,<br />

which was then published by means of a service instruction.<br />

According to this policy, all support proposals addressed to <strong>Efacec</strong><br />

are analyzed in accordance with objective criteria.<br />

Criteria for Analysis of Community Support<br />

Proposals<br />

cooperation in social, cultural and technological initiatives, based<br />

on the following criteria:<br />

• Proximity to operations, activity sector, strategic market or<br />

geographical hub;<br />

• Interest in terms of business, technology or image;<br />

• Credibility of the receiving institution;<br />

• Soundness of the presented request/proposal.<br />
